DEFINITION OF NGO

✕ NGOs are difficult to define and classify due to the term’s inconsistent

use. NGO, non-profit organizations within defined boundaries excludes

NGOs that fall outside each specific boundary.

✕ One of the earliest mentions of the term "NGO" was in 1945, when the

UN was created. The UN introduced the term "NGO" to distinguish

between the participation of international private organizations and

intergovernmental specialized agencies. According to the UN, all kinds

of private organizations that are independent from government control

can be recognized as "NGOs."

OBJECTIVES➢ To develop better co-ordination, collaboration, joint participation, relations and understanding

amongst various constituents of the rural sector for promoting welfare of the rural masses by

eradicating thirst, hunger, illiteracy, disease, poverty and by providing shelter and employment.

programmes spread over a wider geographical area or programmes involving multitude of

transparency and other issues of collective interests and to take up these issues with the

appropriate authorities.

➢ To mobilise necessary support and inputs and to contribute by suitable means at the time of

natural calamities and undertake and participate in disaster management and rehabilitation.

ROLE OF NGOS➢ NGOs in India perform a great role in helping people in a variety of ways. All the NGOs

target the poor and the needy segments of the Indian society. For example the slum children

in Mumbai, people in the tribal belts where government outreach programs are hard to

reach, etc. NGOs perform very definitive role in India. They try to bridge the gap in the

society by bringing welfare programs to people that are in variety of needs.

➢ As part of their day to day operations NGOs also try to engage in gathering information

on various segments of the society to identify the needs of people in specific areas. Added

to that they also run various awareness programs to create social awareness on various

areas such as health issues, educational issues etc. Educational NGOs in India and other

India NGO groups also engage in fund raising events and campaigns to raise funds for

their organization to implement their welfare programs successfully.
